BOSTON — The Bruins would like to do something Saturday night that they’ve done very little through five games against the Montreal Canadiens: Get a lead.

The B’s and Habs will meet Saturday night in Game 5 at TD Garden, and while the series is even entering the pivotal fifth game, Boston has been playing catch-up all series. The Bruins have led for less than a game, and they have yet to have a series lead in terms of games. They’ve preached better starts, which they got in Game 4 in Montreal, but playing with a lead is a foreign idea so far in this series.

Getting ahead, staying ahead and taking the series lead is even more important with the series now a best-of-three and home-ice advantage in Boston’s favor.

The Canadiens apparently are making a lineup change for the game. Brandon Prust is in the lineup in place of Daniel Briere. That move certainly takes away some team speed, but it does add some grit and toughness.

The Bruins’ lineup remains unchanged.

Here are the projected lines and defensive pairings for both teams, based on the pregame warmups.

Berkshire Bank Foundation

During the 2016-2017 regular season, Berkshire Bank Foundation will donate $100 for each Bruins assist to three local non-profit organizations. Click here to see official rules.

As of March 30, the Berkshire Bank Foundation has raised $11,500 for Cradles to Crayons, which provides children from birth through age 12, living in homeless or low-income situations, with the essential items they need to thrive -- at home, at school and at play.

Earlier this season, the foundation raised $10,000 for Soldier On, a private nonprofit organization committed to ending veteran homelessness, and $12,100 for Birthday Wishes, a non-profit organization with a mission to provide birthday parties to children experiencing homelessness.
